How do I send a fax from Office Depot?

[WinterDeere]

And all this started by an OP that sure looks like a spammer...

Maybe we could fax him this thread!

Yeah, one of the weirder ones, I've seen. No advertising anything, per their usual course.

Sometimes they do an innocuous post or a few to start, then come back later and post links to their spam. The OP makes very little real sense, like some AI

The original post was reported as spam, and apparently then deleted by the moderator. But replies were not deleted.

I honestly dont know why anyone even uses faxes any more. But its easy, you hand the counter person the paper to be sent, give them the phone number, and pay the few bucks for the service. I had to do this a few times for a bank when purchasing a property. The last time i sold a property, everything was docusigned online. I trashed my fax machine probably 10 years ago…….never used it.

Many of us still have to use faxes because you can't send personal information (like SSN or health info) over email unless you're using a secure server with authentication required from the recipient.

Could you explain the process and costs involved in sending a fax from Office Depot, and why might it be advantageous to use a mobile fax app instead?

I’m not sure why anyone would post something like this on a tractor forum.

I use the Notes app on my phone to scan and send documents. I do it all the time for work.

I use a simpler and cheaper method for sending fax. Our county library offers fax service "free". Yes I do help fund the county library thru taxes so it's not entirely free...... Back up is local independent copy shop.

I've just been informed\reminded ones personal bank generally offer both free fax and notary services

Every so often I do need to get a fax. I have a dedicated virtual phone number, and my VOIP provider has a (free) service which accepts faxes to that number, then converts them to e-mail and sends them to me.

Doctors think they are sending to a fax (well, that IS my fax number, so they're HIPAA compliant) but it arrives here as an e-mail. Great time saver for routine stuff like blood work orders and appointment changes. I can print it out (if I want to) on plain paper, no more fax paper rolls, thank you.

Sometimes I'll receive a fax from Docu-sign which is alleged to be a secure online fax service.

I haven't needed to send (originate) a fax for so long I can't remember . . .

I do some overseas business and some of my guys there still use fax machines. Fax isn't a dead technology, but it is a mere shadow of its' former self.

Best regards from steamy Florida!
